Something I noticed about my Triceraton...(variation)

OA · 07-06-2005, 04:41 PM

Hey guys

Not sure if this is interesting or not but I thought I'd mention it in case no one has noticed yet...

I was opening up the latest additions to my triceraton warrior army when I noticed something a lil diifernt...as you can seen in the photo, the figure on the left has a different "mechanism" for attaching the tail...all of my other triceratons are like the one on the right...though the last few I've opened today were like that on the left...I,for one, find it MUCH easier to attach the tail with the plug thingy on the tail itself rather than on the body...

Again, nothing really important here, just thought i'd pass on what im seeing!

Triceraton Tails...

Cool find. They must have changed the plug on the newer figures. All the older ones seem to have the plug on the back.

Exactly...the four i opened today all had the new plug location and they were all from the last wave to come out....all of previous ones have the older plug location...

I hope the new design is easier to attach. I had troble with mine. I can't imagine how young kids get them on.

It's no wonder I can't find new Triceratons, Terminator is buying all of them.

I snatch em as soon as I see em...

As far as being easier, I find it MUCH EASIER to attach these than the other type. You really had to use some strength to get those puppies on....these practically just clip on...

More than that though, is that now the tail is more flexible. The other tail could swivel as well, but I find that this one swivels much better.
